Nya Alemayhu

I cannot recommend Nya enough. She worked with me in the spring to purchase my first home, and after a few months here I still could not be more delighted with the result. Nya made the process easy and stress free. At the time we were working together interest rates were increasing, which could be stressful for any potential homebuyer. Her knowledge of the market gave me confidence during this time, but she also has a calming presence that helped me to keep things in perspective.Nya also connected me to other fantastic professionals aEUR" a lender, an inspector, a title company aEUR" who helped make my closing fast and without complication. Anyone would be lucky to work with Nya when searching for their new home!

She always answered our calls and our emails. The way she approached each situation that came up, the way she treated us, her smile, her positive energy, everything was priceless.Nya helped us to get our dream house.

I recently purchased my first home (a one-bedroom unit in northwest D.C.) with Nya Alemayhus assistance, and I could not have asked for a better guide to D.C. real estate. Two of my friends had purchased homes with Nya and strongly recommended her, so when I decided to buy after more than a decade in the city as a renter, it was an easy decision to reach out to her. We began with a discussion of my requirements and preferences by e-mail and phone, setting up proprietary database searches for listings, and then refining those searches through discussions following showings. Nya was always able to offer clear advice to inform my own decisions, but never pressured me to bid on something, or let her own views crowd out mine. Working with Nya over time, I became more confident in my own preferences. This proved to be very important given the state of the market during my home searchaEUR"desirable properties in my target neighborhoods would generally go under contract within a few days or go to competitive bidding. Finding ways to maximize the amount of time for a decision was critical. Nya made sure that I had the chance to view listings very soon after they went on the market, despite my work schedule, and was also able to pull together offers quickly. When the first offer we submitted went to competitive bidding, Nya was an effective and cool-headed advocateaEUR"able to give sound advice about how and when to escalate. Just as importantly, she was unafraid to recommend walking away when the price of a property had gotten ahead of its value. Mercifully, we were able to avoid a bidding war on the property I ultimately purchased, and Nya negotiated effectively with the seller. She protected the inspection clause in my contract, got the seller to address the inspection issues, and negotiated an appraisal clause to further protect my interests. The financing and closing were complex because I was buying in a co-op building, but she guided me through it with aplomb. Purchasing a home requires the help of a lot of different people, and as a first-time buyer, I particularly appreciated Nyas excellent recommendations of other service providersaEUR"particularly my mortgage broker, who I worked with over an extended period of time. Even after my closing, Nya has made clear that she is willing to continue to be a resource as I adjust to being a homeowner. In one of our early conversations, I recall Nya saying something along the lines of: aEURoeThe hardest part of looking for a home is finding the right place, the rest is just paperwork.aEUR? Looking back, I think that did describe my experienceaEUR"not because homebuying is a simple process, but rather because I knew I could trust her to manage and explain the details as they came together, letting me focus on whether a home was right for me. I'm very happy with where I ended up, and without Nya I believe I would not have achieved as good of a result, had as smooth of an experience, or learned as much along the way.

I worked with Nya Alemayhu to purchase my first condo here in DC. She was incredibly patient with me in my search, and only sent along and suggested listings that fit my criteria. She doesn't push you into viewing any units or houses that aren't what you're looking for, nor was there any pressure to put down an offer unless it's what I really wanted to do. Her experience with the housing market in DC was invaluable, and helped me determine what my best bidding strategy was. In the end I was able to obtain a fantastic house after somewhat discouraging losses on two bids. She never gave up hope, and was always encouraging and available! Would highly recommend working with Nya.

My partner and I worked with Nya Alemayhu to buy our first home- a condo in DC. We both had tons of questions for her and she patiently answered every single one. She immediately gave us contacts for shopping for our mortgage, which was so helpful. When we went with Nya to look at condos, we both sensed immediately that her real estate expertise would help us find the right place. I felt like she picked up on my concerns right away and knew, even before I did, when a unit wasn't the right fit. We never felt pressured by Nya to put in an offer, and she gave us excellent advice about putting in an offer and later in negotiating our offer with the seller. She handled every step of the process between our successful offer and closing; it was a breeze for us! I especially appreciated her working to ensure that the repairs we needed would be completed by a trusted contractor before we moved in. Nya was responsive throughout the entire process, and worked with us to make sure that she was communicating with us in the most convenient way (for us, the best way was in a group text). I can't recommend her highly enough, especially for first time home buyers. Our home buying process was so much easier than I ever imagined it could be, all because of Nya!

Nya Alemayhu is a truly impressive real estate professional who actually does get positive results regardless of the market. I had a condominium in the DC area I was trying to sell at the height of the COVID pandemic, and, as I found out, during the low point of condominium demand. This did not faze Nya at all. She came up with innovative ideas to advertise and attract buyers, which resulted in selling the condo at a very rewarding price. I highly recommend Nya Alemayhu for condos, and for single family homes, whether you are in the market for a new home or selling. Thanks Nya!

With the pandemic and the lockdowns, we wanted to move into a house with more room to spread around in and Nya came to our rescue. We found the ideal property in a short amount of time and she patiently facilitated the process in a time when everyone was operating on a heightened level of anxiety and stress. I so appreciated her professionalism and knowledge of the real estate market. Her calm demeanor and positive attitude was an absolute blessing that kept us centered and focused during the entire process. So grateful for Nya Aleymayhu in helping us transition to our new home in one of the worst times in human history.

Working with Nya was a pleasure from start to finish. She is an expert on the many neighborhoods in and around Washington, DC. Nya provided excellent recommendations for home inspections and kept fastidious track of details during every step of the process. When we hit upon problems with sellers, Nya represented my interests and worked tirelessly to resolve them. In addition to being a sharp realtor, she is a receptive sounding board and provides tactful, timely advice. I plan on working with Nya again in the future and will recommend her to any friends buying in the area.

In the tough housing market that we see, it is almost impossible to get a house that meets your needs, let alone your dream house. Nya was a breath of fresh air and allowed me to buy my dream house. Her technical knowledge, negotiation skills along with her interpersonal skills makes her the best real estate agent I could have imagined working with. Would truly recommend her if you are buying your dream house too!
